Evidently, corporate social responsibility is just a #buzzword when it comes to the issues w/ "#Alexa." Turning a blind eye on #CSR rather than executing the principles is a 👏🏼failure👏🏼 of #EthicalAI.👏🏼 #Alexa #Amazon #VoiceFirst @alexa99 Amazon Science aws.amazon.com/blogs/industri…

I was at the grocery store and heard someone yell, "Alexa, where's the cart?" I laughed to myself when I realized he was talking to a real person.

Jew in a Canoe ✡️🇨🇦 memoir now available! One time it was really warm in the gym, and the coach yelled "Alexa, open the door!" and I thought damn, this place is fancy, until I realized she was talking to the associate at the desk.

Carol Vorderman Amazon "#Alexa" for Good?" 🧐Have we ever seen a child's #name used this way in #education? (i.e., Emma for Good, Mason for Good, Hannah for Good) #Educators must implement appropriate standards in #edtech & stand up to #Amazon. #AI #VoiceTech #EdTech #EducationForAll

I feel bad for those named Alexa

There's going to be a lot of women named Alexa with PTSD.

Austen Allred I’m just glad the first impressive, public facing AI chat bot was named ChatGPT instead of some stupid personification like Siri or Alexa. And dear god did we dodge a bullet by not getting “Microsoft Chat”

Hanna Ingber Try replacing "Alexa" with your name, "Hanna", and imagine living in a world where your name now activates 100's of millions of "Hanna" devices, and how the chaos you'd cause whenever you were addressed or mentioned would render you inconvenient to have around. #RebrandAlexa

Finally, here it is attached to the back of my phone. It’s glowing blue because before I took the picture, I said “Alexa”. At that point, I could use it just like any Alexa device. It uses my phone’s speaker and network. And what’s best: I don’t need to unlock my phone.

In all of the commotion of these last few years I realized we have committed an egregious error Let's rectify that, shall we? When's the last time you reached out to your friends or family members named Alexa and checked if they were okay? Make a difference. Check on an Alexa.

People named Alex, Alexa, Alexis, etc. Should start a class action lawsuit against amazon if they haven't already

Dr. Jenni Brandon 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇦 I have never understood the logic in naming a voice accident or AI bot with a real name

Not only is this a bad idea but it doesn't adhere to ethical #AI practices.➡️"Ask #Amazon" impacts no one. There are 80,000+ Alexas under the age of 18 in the #USA who don't need to be subjected to #name hijacking. #Alexa #ai #tech #VoiceTechViolations linkedin.com/posts/fraylrod…

Amazon's Alexa became a major success but unintentionally led to widespread teasing for people named Alexa. The popularity of the name has significantly declined since the product's launch, raising questions about whether virtual assistants should have human-like names.
